    Hi Derek,

     

    Conditional formatting is very basic in Power BI so please put a Vote for the following idea:

    The only way for you to get some kind of conditional formatting is to create an extra column (measure or calculated), there you could make a binary value based on B<A and set the color for that column. You could also subtract A from B and use conditional formatting on the resulting column. So concluding, it is not possible to do conditional formatting of one column, looking at another one.
